Is the rubber okay? Not sure about longevity. Speaker sounds fine.
galleryI bought this on ebay.
Bowers and Wilkins 702 S3.
It looks like the edges of the rubber on the woofers has wear. Looks as if some of the top layer got rubbed off? Or it's something else. This is present on the outer edge and inner edge all around on each bass woofer (3 bass woofers total).
Speaker seems to be working and sounding fine. I just wonder if it's going to last for a good amount of time. I got a different open box speaker from a different seller, to pair with this speaker, and the rubber on that one looks new, uniform, no wear.
